A balance of protein synthesis and proteasome-dependent degradation determines the maintenance of LTP

Long-lasting changes in synaptic strength are thought to play a pivotal role in activity-dependent plasticity and memory. There is ample evidence indicating that in hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP) the synthesis of new proteins is crucial for enduring changes. However, whether protein degrad...
